In response to Jim:

This feature is not annoying TO YOU. I'll thank you not to speak on behalf of myself or others. While you may find this difficult to do accidentally, I find it quite easy to trip over. Maybe different people have different mouse-clicking patterns, such that some people trigger it more often than others. I often find myself clicking the mouse for no specific purpose, just as a general part of my thought process, in the same way that someone might fiddle with a button on their shirt or stir their coffee even when its not necessary.

There are enough people speaking out against this 'feature' that it seems rather foolish to make the unqualified claims -- that it is not annoying and that it is difficult to trigger accidentally -- without providing something more than your own counter-anecdote in reply.
